Safely Here!

We arrived safely here yesterday, late in the afternoon. We stopped briefly in the Vatican area so as to purchase items so that we could have them blessed at today's audience with Pope Francis.

Today we will be leaving in an hour at 6:30 am to head to St. Peter's. There we will enjoy the audience prior to lunch, Mass, and seeing the major piazzas of Rome.

Below are just a few of the photos of our group (slightly tired) at our first moments in Rome.
